Make more money doing photography.

Crazy!  What kind of photography?

Seniors, engagements and weddings.

I have 12 weddings this year, so far, and that's enough to double my income.

As a recently married guy I can attest to quality photographers making a very good wage for their work.  Being a guy (i.e. someone who knows nothing of the sorts) at first I thought it was a joke seeing the estimated figure in the Excel spreadsheet we used to track expenses for the wedding.  Between flowers and photos budget I thought she was pulling a fast one on me and going on a vacation, a shopping spree, and putting a down payment on a new car.....

As an engaged guy, planning his wedding, I can confirm all of this. The photographer related costs is unreal but she has never complained too much about my spending habits.

I'm a software developer and have a BSc in Computer Science - There are times where I think that I could be in the same, or better, job now having started out with a junior job at 18 as I had some coding experience before going to Uni.  However, there are lots of more general/peripheral items related to my job that I picked up at Uni which have really helped me out at times over the past couple of years.

9 years after graduating I'm still 50/50 on whether I would have been better to skip the degree and go straight into work after A-Levels.

Well I have 8 years active duty Army experience (still currently in) as well as I am about to finish my a BS in Criminal Justice. I will start a masters program but not sure which direction I would like to go.

Four years in the Marines right out of HS.

Got done with that and knocked out a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Communications.

Now I do photography. And play golf.
